This week Chase is making some big changes to their Ink business products. This includes the end of one of the best offers of the year with the 120K Ink Preferred offer coming to an end very soon. The bank is also cutting back their referral offers in half, but you still have a little bit of time. Should you tell friends about a better deal or cash in on a referral that pays you and gives them less?
